Ep 186: The "Let Them" Theory... But Make It Shadow Work
from Unf*ck Your Relationships · host Michelle Panning
Here's what to do if you feel someone pulling away from you. Ready? Let them. I'm serious as f*ck. If someone starts to pull away from you, if someone wants to break up, if someone refuses to meet your standards, if someone won't pick their shit up off the floor even when you've asked a hundred times… Just let them. The "Let Them" theory, coined by Mel Robbins, is literally that simple. People are going to do what they're going to do whether you try to change it or not…so just let them. You'll be amazed how much weight lifts off your shoulders. However, as amazing as this framework is, I think there's a piece missing—and that piece is shadow work.
